Welcome to Kook Village
Trinkets, Sundries, & Curios for the Modern - Day Kook
Gift perfection never did exist- until now! These tiny & adorable Everlasting arrangements in their handcrafted Jesmonite vases go down a treat with every single person for every single occasion! Your sisters 3rd engagement? Boom, gifted! Your housemates breakup? Boom, gifted! Your friends new baby? Boom, gifted! Work acquaintance brings their dog into the office? Boom, gifted! Feeling down? They really are the absolute most perfect little treat-yoself moment that doesn’t involve overindulging in that favourite chocolate product you’re pretending you don’t see in the back of the cupboard…! Best of all, the flowers can last for up to a year in a good, dry spot, and if you don’t like them simply add them to the compost heap & put something you do like in there instead- fancy pencil/toothbrush holder anyone? We think yes!
Some people don’t believe in salad. The salad-lovers among us will forever be damned by the Ye Olde Proverb: “You don’t win friends with salad” – sing it with me now! Sorry I didn’t mean to take sides, I just got caught up in the rhythm XD But here’s a hot take: why not try winning friends with salad BOWLS instead? So here’s a cute situation: Friend texts ‘hey we’re having a lil vegan bbq, pls bring a side’ & you’re like ‘ok sure’ & realise you’re all out of the walnuts, apples, grapes, celery & mayonnaise you need to make a Waldorf, and all you have is lettuce & the party is in 30min because you’re lazy like that & left it to the last minute- what to do?! I got you, babe. Just put the lettuce in one of these bad boys & you’ll be the talk of the town: “who brought that dope salad in the freaky, amazing, best bowl I’ve ever seen?” is what people will be saying of you & your dish of lettuce. Best. BBQ. Ever.
In the hustle & bustle of our hectic modern lives, we rarely take a moment to stop & breathe and give ourselves the time & attention we deserve. Sometimes all you need is a few minutes a day where you can completely be yourself in your own comfortable space, that’s personalised & cosy just for you.

Our Makers provide quality goods for your home & lifestyle, with an eye for the peculiar & eccentric! Our online store is truly a place for discovering extraordinary décor & outlandish home accessories.
We see ourselves as Aussie Eco-Warriors and are conscious to minimise our environmental impact – we only use packaging from sustainable sources, & always biodegradable and recyclable too. Our materials are Australian made & ethically sourced- supporting Aussie companies. Nostalgia is part of village life and a lot of our pieces are vintage-inspired with original castings often taken from antique, retro, & second-hand pieces, rehoming the old & giving them new life! We support both local & international charities with a percentage of all proceeds going towards helping where we can.
